Someone explain to me how Courtney Green is allowed to officiate this Illinois game. He’s horrible, and I think everyone agrees on that. Officiating must be a bigger boys club than the IU admin. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I thought Brownell out-coached Lloyd in that game. I’m probably the only one here that didn’t know he was born in Evansville. I guess I never paid attention to his history. Pretty cool for him/them! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Transfer Portal w IU Interest

I have committed to BTB over Indiana. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -
Completely agree. I’m a Dusty homer, but my gut says IU will regret it big time. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Serious question…do you guys think if this coming season goes south that the next IU head coaching search will be as embarrassing as Louisville’s? Kelsey may turn out great, I don’t know. But the optics on the whole thing have been brutal for them. We all just want to think that anyone (Pearl, etc) would leave for the IU job, but my confidence in that gets lower by the day and by each failed season. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I keep seeing people say this about IU luring him away, but I don’t see it. Maybe it is too big of a risk now like people are saying, but I think he’s gonna crush it at UofL, where when things are rolling, they can print money. If he succeeds, I don’t think he’ll leave. Anyone banking on him walking to IU later just isn’t realistic. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yes and Dusty to IU. We have it all decided. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Other than actually finishing and beating UK, would there be anything better than being the guy to go on an absolute heater against a team like UK? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I came here to post the article, then saw you already had. Great read! A lot of nostalgia for me, having played at EG. I’m still going through the grieving process that Dusty will be at UL. I wouldn’t do this for anyone else, but I’ll be pulling for them because of him. Mark my words: IU will live to regret it. Side note, but I thought I would be over Woodson coming back by now, but I’m not. I refuse to enter the acceptance part of grief and am stuck in the anger stage. First time I can remember feeling this negative towards IU basketball. I’ve never just transferred my fandom away, even through so many thin years. But I’m right there right now. I guess what I’m saying is…Fire Woodson!!! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Hey Jerry, thanks so much for taking the time and for the detail. Are you personally a fan of Dolson and have trust that he will get this next hire right? Your update gives me some hope that he knows what he’s doing, but is perhaps handcuffed by admin/donors. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I know. “If you win there, you’re king. But if you lose, everyone turns on you.” That’s (I believe) word for word from our conversation. Again, I would argue that’s everywhere, but it’s not my place to try to reason that with family. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
-
Yeah, I agree with what you’re saying. I don’t know, that could just be something Dusty feeds to family so they don’t get their hopes up about him coming home? Ha, I’m grasping at straws. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Oh, I totally agree. I was really close to saying something like, “Well that’s all P5 jobs now, not just a place like IU,” but I didn’t. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
-
Yeah, I would think he would have his choice. This person also said that they “spoke to him last week,” so the Louisville job probably wasn’t open yet. I hope you’re right about IU. It pretty much made me lose hope about that, even if he was offered. Just to be clear, I don’t blame Dusty at all. Just kinda felt like a gut punch. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I am hesitant to share this. I’m not a person with “sources,” and am not trying to claim to be someone who knows anything. I guess as much as anything, I appreciate this community and decided to share after thinking more about it. Don’t shoot the messenger. Anyway, I know an immediate member of Dusty’s family and spoke with them last night. I try not to bother this person, but usually just say hey, I saw that FAU game the other night, etc. This person volunteered to me last night that the rumors about OSU and Dusty are true. They apparently offered him 3.5 million per year and the thing about Lebron offering more is also true. I said that I’d hate to see him go there and wished IU would hire him. This person said IU really isn’t high on Dusty’s list at all. He seems to think he wouldn’t be given adequate time, or if things didn’t go well, people would turn quickly. This family member seemed to think (at least yesterday) that Dusty will most likely be a buckeye next year. Needless to say, I’ve been bummed ever since. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I lost it when he said the thing about the Titanic. Maybe he’ll get a lifeboat off the Louisville Titanic this year and get to join the IU Titanic with Captain Woody next year. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
-
I’m gonna be Debbie Downer again and say good luck to Woody finding anything close to what TJD and Ware have provided in back to back years. We are numb to just how good Ware has been because of TJD’s absurd numbers last year. Two absolutely unbelievable seasons (and an all-time great season for TJD) and what is there to show for it? If he can find a third rim protector anywhere close to those 2, he’s more of a magician than a coach. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Thanks to all the true fans out there who haven’t held the coach/staff/program to the same championship standards that the coach set for himself. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Not a fan of *winning* Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Agreed. I know a lot of people threaten this, but I’m all the way out if we run it back with Woodson and Dusty goes to OSU. I’ve been a faithful fan and hardly missed a game since I was 7 or 8. I’m 32 now. Not to be dramatic, but why would I continue to help and support a program that refuses to help itself? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

This program can take the rest of my joy away, but they can’t take my flight tracking. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
